Hitachi RAS-S25YHAB Instruction Manual page 37

THE FOLLOWING CASES DOES NOT INDICATE MALFUNCTION
During heating, the operation
indicator blinks and air blow stops
(FROST WASH),
indicators lit after the
operations
Hissing or fizzy sounds
Squeaking noise
Rustling noise
Clicking noise
Perking noise
Changing operation noise
Mist emission
Steam emitted from the outdoor unit
Odors
The outdoor unit continues to operate
even if operation is stopped.
The OPERATION lamp is blinking.
Does not reach the temperature
setting
• If the unit still fails to operate
normally after performing the
above inspections, turn the
circuit breaker off, or pull the
power plug out, and contact
your sales agent immediately.
<Operation start>
The unit is preparing to blow warm air. Please wait.
<In operation>
The outdoor unit is defrosting. Please wait.
Indicates frost wash operation is underway.
Refrigerant flow noise in the pipe or valve sound generated when flow rate is
adjusted.
Noise generated when the unit expands or contracts due to temperature changes.
Noise generated with the indoor unit fan's rpm changing such as operation start
times.
Noise of the motorized valve when the unit is switched on.
Noise of the ventilation fan sucking in air present in the drain hose and blowing out
dehumidifying water that had accumulated in the condensed water collector. For
details, consult your sales agent.
Operation noise changes due to power variations according to room temperature
changes.
Mist is generated as the air within the room is suddenly cooled by conditioned air.
Water generated during defrosting operation evaporates and steam is emitted.
Caused as the smells and particles of smoke, food, cosmetics, etc. present in room
air become attached the unit and blown off into the room again.
Defrosting is underway (as the heating operation is stopped, the microcomputer
checks frost accumulated in the outdoor unit and instructs the unit to perform
automatic defrosting if necessary).
Shows preheating or defrosting operation is underway.
As the protective circuit or preheat sensor operates when unit operation is stopped
during preheating and then restarted, or when operation mode is switched from cooling
to heating, the lamp continues to blink.
Actual room temperature may deviate slightly from the remote controller's
temperature setting depending on the number of people in the room, indoor or
outdoor conditions.
Contact your sales agent immediately if the
following phenomena should occur:
• The circuit breaker switches off or the fuse blows
frequently.
• The switch operation is not stable.
• Foreign matter or water accidentally enters the unit interior.
• The power cord gets excessively hot or its insulation is torn or stripped.
• TIMER lamp on the indoor unit display blinks.
(
As the nature of the failure can be identified by the blinking cycle,
check the blinking cycle before turning off the circuit breaker.
